Gary, What momma want momma git!

Roman you know darn well your welcome to those towels, just run it it past the boss first.

I ‘m lucky to get a shot of this thing right now as I am just in the finishing stages of a $15,000.00 office/warehouse reno. Ceiling electical, bathroom upgrades, demolition and repaiir and the list goes on. We took 30 yards of material out before we could even start and I could use another 15 cu yd bucket.
It’s so over heated here that people have been coming in while we are working trying to rent the space.

Cheers

You guys are killing me (in a good way) with all the things being made with a standard
2×4 stick.

Great job on the design and execution.

-- Still learning everything

I’m just kidding Bob#2

As much as some might think I look good near pink towels, really I dont. No arguement there. The subject of pink towels in my bathroom has never come up yet…..........thankfully.

Good to know the market is doing well in your endeavors.

I love renovating
.......seriously

Hey Bob #2…....that’s good thinking. I like the beaded detail on the lower shelves and the tapered legs. That’s a good look’in project.

Oh nice touch on the towels with the nice ruffle and lace :)

Hard to belive that was a two buh four…Nice one!

You have certainly ennobled that humble 2×4. Great job, Bob!

That is a really nice project. I am amazed by the projects that can be completed from a simple 2×4. Before seeing the projects posted here I only thought of it in terms of rough construction and would never have envisioned using one for a furniture project. The imagination of some of the members of this group simply has no boundaries and they are capable of working well outside the box.

You and the others posting 2×4 projects are an inspiration to the rest of us.

-- With God's help all things are possible- even woodworking. Woodworking is not just a hobby, it is an (expletive deleted) expensive hobby.

no one (but us LJ’s) will ever know what lies at the heart of your project. Oh what wonders the lowly 2×4 has now achieved, never expecting such transformation, thanks to this contest

That came out great, Bob.

Great job with a single 2×4. Heck, that would be a great job with grade A hardwood!

News Flash: 2×4 transformed into fine furniture … Film at 11. A very nice piece.

-- If at first you don't succeed, try again. Then quit. No use being a darn fool about it.

That’s just…ummm…Wow just doesn’t seem to cover it. Very impressive from a single 2×4.

-- "Give me your poor tools, your tired steel, your huddled masses of rust." Yep, I ripped off the Statue of Liberty. That's how I roll!

That’s a dandy, Bob. I never think anything about what I find in the bathroom. I keep the one in the shop suitably “Manly”( dirty) to suit me. And the towels ain’t pink.

Hi Thos.:

That’s not my bathroom.
It’s my wife’s and trust me she ain’t manly! <g>

very nice project bob well done thanks for shareing it

-- if you aint the lead dog the scenery never changes

i like it … amazing work

-- a legend in my own mind ...

i just keep shaking my head. Every time I see a 2×4 project, I am in awe at what has been created.
This is beautiful. Love the legs and the smooth, rounded top.
Very nice

I missed this before.
Good job. Actually looks practical.
I really need to ‘up’ my finishing skills.
(You do look good in pink)
